  • Low diffusivity paper for sublimation printing
    Patent number: 12023947
    Abstract: A protective barrier well suited for use in sublimation printing is made primarily from cellulose fibers. The protective barrier, which can comprise an uncoated paper, can be used to prevent sublimation inks from bleeding through a fabric onto the printing equipment. The uncoated paper is recyclable and can enter the paper recycle stream. The uncoated paper can contain first cellulose fibers combined and blended with second cellulose fibers that differ in fiber length and/or in the degree of refining. The uncoated paper is constructed to have a relatively low diffusivity.
